From Fromage & Baguette to Pizza, Pasta & Amore

The last days crossing France were hard for Eva and Flo. To drive through the cities on the Côte d’Azur without a good working first gear with so many tourists is not the best idea. “Poor gearbox – this was not nice from us!”
But after three stressed days in France they arrived Italy! Here they are driving also the cost way and had already passed the City of Genova and are staying now in the National Park of Cinque Terre. A very nice place – but see below!

On the coast

After many great days in Arneva they had to look forward and so Eva and Flo continued their trip. They are now going back the coast way of Spain and France to visit Italy. There are a lot of beautiful places and cities they have seen:

All about Monserrates’ place and the city nearby

As Eva and Flo arrived in Arneva (Orihuela-Alicante) Monserrate told them what they first have to do: “Relax”. So they did and enjoyed the first evening with a BBQ – the spanish way. The next days they where invited for lunch by the family and this was the only thing they really had to do.
They got to know Manuel a friend of Monserrate who had learned to build Sofas. So Flo asked him if he can fix the right front seat of his bug because the travel was destroying it. He said yes and so the deal was perfect. They go to searched for the best cloth an Manuel sew it in the old leather. Now the seat looks like new and Eva is happy to sit well.
Another day Monserrate showed them the old parts of Orihuela which his Hometown Arneva belong to. Flo and Eva hadn’t expect that beautiful city. They walk along and get told about its history and about the local hero Cid.
”At this point we want to say thank you very much Monserrate! Also a big thanks to your very friendly family! It was a great time at your home and also on your flat at the beach! But now we have to continue our journey. We hope you come soon to visit us in Vienna!”
